You Do!

the smile upon your face
is helping me smile again
the light within your eyes
is lighting me from within

the frustration in your voice
is making me mad again
for the poor, forgotten, laughed at and abused,
you really know how to be a Friend

You lead the way in everything
in living, in dying, in laughing, in crying
You lead the way in everything
You do

the pain within your sigh
is making me feel alive
i'm taking it in instead of running again
i/m changing,,, Lord, ain't i?

the sadness comes in waves
You lift me from the ditch
saying, "i won't make you wealthy,
this ain't about getting rich"

You lead the way in everything
in living, in dying, in laughing, in crying
You lead the way in everything
Yes You Do!

You are a crazy God to love us like You do
You don't make sense with how You bring us through
i saw a homeless man with scars upon his wrist
laughing at the fear he once obeyed, now his joy is Your nearness

You lead the way in everything
in living, in dying, in laughing, in crying
You lead the way in everything
help me hang on Lord
help me hang on Lord
help me stay close to Your Heart
i pray You do!
